Community

Community is broadly interpreted in the context of who the Community Partner can be for a PACCE-funded project. The community partner can be, but is not limited to, the following:

Local

Regional

State

National

International

On-line

Existing business

New ventures

For profits

Non-profits

Not for profits

Social organizations

Civic

Community governance

Education/Schools

Large, small, individual

Campus

The organizational status of a community member is not as important as whether or not the student is being exposed to a challenge that extends her/his academic training outside the formal classroom and outside the textbook assignment to a real community challenge. Very important as well is whether or not the community partner will be an integrated part of the student learning experience.
